 #### Static building
 
-The produced executable will only run in the MSYS console, or if all the needed DLLs are next to the executable. To obtain a standalone executable, you need to link statically the dependencies. Normally, this is done just by adding "-static" at the LIBS line in the Makefile. Unfortunately, libcurl will give you a hard time, and you need to compile it yourself.

-First, edit the Makefile to add "-D CURL_STATICLIB" at the end of the CFLAGS line and "-static" just after the "LIBS =" in the first LIBS line. You might also want to change the march argument to support other/olders processors.
+First, download the [latest official libcurl code](https://curl.haxx.se/download.html) on their website, under "Source Archives", and decompress the folder somewhere (for example, next to the rieMiner's one).
 
-```
-CFLAGS = -Wall -Wextra -std=gnu++11 -O3 -march=native -fno-pie -no-pie -D CURL_STATICLIB
-[...]
-LIBS   = -static -pthread -ljansson -lcurl -lcrypto -lgmpxx -lgmp -lws2_32 -Wl,--image-base -Wl,0x10000000

+make
 ```
 
-Then, compile libcurl with make. We now need to replace the existing libcurl headers and libs provided by MinGW:
+Once done:
 
-* In the downloaded libcurl directory, go to the include directory and copy the "curl" folder to replace the one in X:\path\to\msys64\mingw64\include (make a backup if needed);
-* Do the same with the file "libcurl.a" in the libs/.lib folder to replace the one in X:\path\to\msys64\mingw64\lib (make a backup if needed).
+* Create "incs" and "libs" folders in the rieMiner directory;
+* In the downloaded libcurl directory, go to the include directory and copy the "curl" folder to the "incs" folder;

-Now, you should be able to compile rieMiner with make and produce a standalone executable.
